​Sessegnon rejects Liverpool, Tottenham; signs first pro contract with Fulham

Ryan Sessegnon has signed his first professional contract.

And not for the outfit many expected as the 17-year old decided to stick with his current club, Fulham, ahead of Premier League giants, Liverpool and Tottenham.

The Englishman told the club's website: "I'm excited to see what's in front of me at this club, hopefully we can all push on now.

"Last year I got a lot of opportunities from the gaffer, and I just want to continue that."

Sessegnon begun his career as a 16-year old last season, scoring 7 goals in 30 appearances for the Cottagers.
